The room i stayed was shared by 8 people. Unlike other hostels, each room had a separate toilet and bathroom and it was pretty clean and spacious. The bed was quite comfortable with USB charging ports / plug points nearby the bed. There was also a spacious box underneath the bed to keep your luggage. We were able to fit in 2 backpacks in one box. There was however no lock for the boxes, it would be good to take one when you go to the hostel. You can even buy one for few euros. The breakfast was quite good with many healthy options as well. If you are going to explore the city, i suggest you take the breakfast here as it saves quite a lot of time. They also had a locker facility which can be used even after checkout from the hostel. The staff was friendly and they spoke good english.

The matress was comfortable, the room was clean and the location was perfect. 30 seconds to the metro station.

As soon as we got there, the staff was nice and friendly and helped giving us information on different things to do in the city. We stayed in the 4 bunk bed room and it was spacious. Our trash was picked up everyday so we always came to a clean room. The sink was located outside the bathroom and there was a separate toilet and shower room which was very convenient when you have roommates!
The Colonel Fabian metro station was a short walk away and it made transportation to and from the city very easy and accessible.

“The Generator hotel I think it’s a franchise and that’s great because you already know what’s up.”

An Inside Look at Generator Paris

Evening entertainment is aplenty when it comes to Generator. Check out our Café Fabien menu for a quick bite, then head down the quirky spiral staircase into our very own metro station looking night bar. Or head up the lift to the 9th floor and discover the jaw dropping views of the Sacré-Cœur and Montmartre that come with drinks on the rooftop bar. There’s nothing quite like watching the sun set over Paris with a cold drink in hand.

Booking.com Guest Review Guidelines

To keep the rating score and review content relevant for your upcoming trip, we archive reviews older than 24 months.

Only a customer who has booked through Booking.com and stayed at the property in question can write a review. This allows us to verify that our reviews come from real guests like you. Who better to tell others about the free breakfast, friendly staff, or their comfortable room than someone who’s stayed at the property?

We want you to share your story, with both the good and the not-so-good. All we ask is that you follow a few simple guidelines.

Reviews Vision

We believe review contributions and property responses will highlight a wide range of opinions and experiences, which is critical in helping guests make informed decisions about where to stay.

Reviews Principles

Contributions to Booking.com are a reflection of the dedication of our guests and properties, so we treat them with the utmost respect.

Whether negative or positive, we'll post every comment in full, as quickly as possible, after it's moderated to comply with Booking.com guidelines. We'll also provide transparency over the status of submitted content.

After a review has been submitted, you can modify it by contacting Booking.com customer service.

We'll use the same guidelines and standards for all user-generated content, and for the property responses to that content.

We'll allow the contributions to speak for themselves, and we won’t be the judge of reality. Booking.com’s role is to be a feedback distributor for both guests and properties.

Guidelines and Standards for Reviews

These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.

Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.

Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.

All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.

Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.

The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.

By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

We booked a Premium room and this exceeded our expectations. The room was large, very bright, clean and modern. We had our own private external balcony which overlooked Paris. The rooms was on the 8th floor and although this was a very busy Hostel, we were not bothered by noise. The room was easily accessible by lift.
The bar/bistro was always open and staffed by very friendly people who seemed to be very knowledgeable and bilingual which is essential in such a busy place full of travellers. Overall outstanding stay.

We got a room that was awful. The shower didn’t have curtains so the bathroom floor was always flooded. Also we had no place to put our clothes to. The room only had one bed and and 2 chairs with a very small coffee table - so absolutely no place to put our stuff to.
Looked nothing like in the pictures.

Nice rooftop terrace! And only a ten minute walk to republique.

The only thing I would say could have been better was the lighting in the room. When it came to doing make up and getting ready it would have been helpful if there was a mirror near the window or if there were a freestanding small mirror that we could have moved.

The hostel was in a great location with a station across the street and only half an hours all from most things. The staff were friendly and the luggage locker room was incredibly useful when it came to checking in and checking out as we didn’t want to walk round the Cory with our cases. The cafe and bar was very comfortable and we met other guests who were so friendly when we were sitting there. I would recommend the generator to anyone and would definitely stay there again!

The location was too far from the main attractions like eiffel, champs-elysees, louvre. Typically take metro plus walking of 30-40min. The under bed storage for bed no4 is hard to use as it is near the corner. You have to take out the whole no3 locker and move it aside then only can access to no 4

The room was really clean and the staff is friendly.
